Time to find something more interesting.
Quite a few things in life can be boring.

But I do think it might be an idea to tackle things in the style of Just a Minute led by 95 years old Nicholas Parsons, with no Repetition, Deviation or Hesitation.

Am I off piste or maybe just piste off.

just saying...........

Ok, you might argue that they voted for this bunch, but insights about once's vote can change with time and increasing knowledge.

Re: This is now Boring.

Y'DO realise Shakespeare actually saw this coming?
He foretold this sad parting of friends from friends,of families torn asunder.
He even foretold the issue at stake...400+ years ago!

Oh,yes; "To 'B',or not to 'B',that,is the question"...WHAT a bloke,eh?!?

I know, but:
You have to pay extra £7 to visit europe as a tourist
We gave to pay €10 to visit the UK
After the UK leaves, we will not be able to watch the bbc (in the netherlands 90% of houses are on cable. We will no longer see country files, casualty, holby, call the midwives. My wife will devastated.

Well that all sounds fair to me. I'd like to see only licence payers see BBC programming, and I can't see a problem with such a small fee to visit countries, it's just over £2 a year to add to holidays etc. Not going to bankrupt anyone.

I watch Countryfile but none of the others..........Life is still good.

£7 is the cost of two coffees in London, Edinburgh, Paris and The Hague.............It's no biggie!

Obvious solution is don't go to Europe for your hols. Turkey and the US spring to mind. Better still, go on a `staycation` and keep your money in the UK.
